Chapter 130: Rumors
The warm spring light fell on the two sisters-in-law, shining brightly, and at this moment, an abrupt voice broke the peace of the afternoon.
"Shhhh
The nervous and cautious voice of a palace maid fell in the imperial garden, and the breeze passed through the rockery not far away.
Qiyang and Gu Yanling glanced at each other, but they didn't say anything, and listened to the words behind them tacitly.
Sure enough, the voice of another palace maid also sounded slightly, although it was not big, but it just fell on the ears of everyone under the pavilion.
"Don't you know? It's been spread all over the outside of the palace, even the children in the streets and alleys, don't you think it's strange? As soon as the good news of the pregnancy came from the East Palace's eldest concubine, the Xuanfu sent an urgent report of the military situation and was besieged by the Tatar army. β
Hearing the East Palace, Qiyang couldn't help frowning, but Gu Yanling gradually heard something from these words.
"What kind of place is Xuanfu, once Xuanfu is lost, the Tatars in the north will be able to drive straight into our Jingling City, and thenββ"
The previous Gong'e was only afraid that she was frightened by these words, and said with a little panic in her voice: "Don't say it, it's weird and scary, isn't our army also going on the expedition? β
"That being said, but these two things collided so coincidentally, doesn't it confirm those rumors outside the palace-"
The girl who only listened to the conversation said mysteriously: "The child in the womb of the eldest concubine of the East Palace has brought an ominous atmosphere, and before she was born, there was such a tense war, if she was born, I am afraid that it will cause greater unease, and even turmoil in the worldββ"
"Shhh
The other palace maid seemed to be afraid, her voice panicked and trembled, and gradually, the sound of hurried and messy footsteps sounded behind the rockery.
"What are you afraid of, I just saw it, and there are no people here, not to mention, there are many people who spread this, but there is no shortage of us. β
As soon as the girl's words fell, she saw two palace maids in blue skirts turning from behind the rockery, and there was a pebble path on the side of the rockery and the octagonal pavilion, when they walked out one after the other, as soon as they looked up, they saw two women in palace costumes sitting in the middle of the pavilion, surrounded by palace people, and looked at them so quietly.
One of the women had anger in her eyes, and the other seemed to be laughing, but that smile made them shudder, and the two palace maids suddenly froze there like thunder in the face of this sudden scene.
"Bastard thing! Who made you talk about the East Palace in private, come on, tear her mouth for me!"
The East Palace is Qiyang's warmest home, and Xiao Yi is Qiyang's closest brother since he was a child, and now seeing that such a humble palace maid dares to talk about her brother's unborn child like this, her chest is already angry, and she doesn't care about the side, she immediately got up and pointed straight at the palace maid behind her who was glamorous and vicious in her mouth.
The palace maid turned pale in shock when she heard this, and she almost shook like chaff and kept kowtowing: "The slave and maid are wrong, the slave and the maid don't dare to spread it anymore, but these are not what the slave and maid said, it is everyone who is preaching, please spare your master's life, beg your master to spare your life-"
The palace maid who spoke badly before was so frightened that she didn't forget to defend and refute, and the timid and fearful palace maid was so frightened that she only knelt there, didn't say a word, and even seemed to forget to cry.
The next moment, the girl who followed Qiyang looked weak, but when she walked over, she grabbed the palace maid's chin and twisted the mouth with her hand.
Hearing the palace maid's frightened screams and incessantly begging for mercy, Qiyang sneered and said: "Fang Cai is not a clever mouth with sharp teeth, this son only knows how to beg for mercy? Give me a good palm, so that this dog slave can understand what will happen if you ruin the reputation of your master!"
As the fierce palm wind sounded, a slap sound that was sharper than the other almost overwhelmed the entire imperial garden, and the palace maid's screams and begs for mercy were extremely distorted.
Qiyang is a girl who has not left the pavilion after all, Gu Yanling doesn't want to ruin the reputation of Qiyang's daughter because of these slaves, so she raised her hand and said, "Slow." β
Qiyang only thought that Gu Yanling was soft-hearted, and twisted his eyebrows and reluctantly tried to persuade him, but he was pressed down by Gu Yanling's soothing palm.
The palace maid's face was swollen at the moment, blood flowed between her lips and teeth, stained with teeth, and tears looked red and terrifying.
Gu Yanling stood up slowly, and walked towards it unhurriedly.
Seeing this, Qiyang hurriedly grabbed Gu Yanling and said, "Sister-in-law, don't go, don't let this hateful slave be blinded and scare the child." β
Hearing this, Gu Yanling gently put her hand on the back of Qiyang's hand to soothe, and then said softly: "If you are scared by such a slave who deserves it, it is not the child of our Xiao family, nor is it the daughter-in-law of our Xiao family." β
Hearing the firmness in Gu Yanling's words, Qiyang finally let go of his hand, but stood up to help Gu Yanling over. Who knew that he was stopped by Gu Yanling's backhand, Qiyang was slightly stunned, and saw that Gu Yanling's tone remained unchanged, and his smile became more kind.
"You haven't been out of the cabinet yet, it's not easy to come out like this, it's not good for you, I'll deal with this matter. β
Looking at Gu Yanling's gestured eyes, Qiyang understood that it was not good for a daughter who had not left the cabinet to have a connection with such a bloody disposal of minions.
Seeing that Qiyang was standing in place, Gu Yanling turned around and was supported by Libi, and slowly walked over, because of the backlight, the palace maid could only watch the palace woman slowly approach, every step was dignified and noble, but it was with a compelling chill.
Until she got closer, the woman's tall figure blocked the light in front of her, and a cold shadow fell.
The woman in front of her was still smiling at the corners of her lips, so careless, but it made her tremble.
And the next moment, the woman looked at her condescendingly, and the corners of her lips slightly outlined a few words that were light and breezy.
"Do you know who I am? β
Hearing these indifferent words, the palace maid shook her head tremblingly, and said weakly: "Slave, slave and maid have dog eyes, and they don't know their masters." β
As soon as he finished speaking, he knelt down and shook his body and said, "Ask the master to forgive your sins." β
However, after a long time, she didn't hear any more voices above her head, such an eerie silence stiffened her back, almost straightened every nerve, and even the cold sweat rolling on her forehead did not let her notice.
Gu Yanling looked at the person under his feet, couldn't help but chuckle, feeling the fear and nervousness of that figure, Gu Yanling finally spoke up, and said casually: "Just now, you were still saying that the child in the womb of this palace is ominous, but at this moment, you don't know who this palace is." β
The smile on the corner of Gu Yanling's lips gradually disappeared and turned cold.
I saw that the palace maid's pupils shrank suddenly, and then she was filled with fear, her body was already paralyzed there, and the next moment she suddenly thought of something, and humbly knelt at Gu Yanling's feet, her words full of begging.
"Eldest grandson, the slave is wrong, please spare the slave and the maidβ"
Seeing this, Yu Bi immediately stepped forward, protected Gu Yanling behind him, and reprimanded sharply: "Come on, pull this cheap maid away, if you hurt the eldest concubine, be careful." β
As soon as the words fell, even if there was a spiritual attendant, he stepped forward and dragged the trembling body of the palace maid backwards, dragging out a cold blood stain.
Gu Yanling looked at this scene indifferently, and then said loudly: "Drag people to reward eighty rods, summon all the slaves and maids in the palace to watch the punishment, and tell them what will happen if they dare to commit a crime and curse their master." β
As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Yanling didn't bother to look at it anymore, turned around and left with Qiyang.
Since Concubine Cheng was demoted, Empress Yuan ordered Gu Yanling to accompany Concubine Ning to assist in the Six Palaces, so that the Six Palaces watched the punishment, and no one dared not obey the order.
Seeing that the palace maid was beaten with one rod after another, and died in pain until the last rod was completed, she was dragged out of a bloody path like that, and the death was hideous and terrifying.
